I saw the saddest thing yesterday afternoon.

This is the place and the memorial where Alex Pretti was murdered, now covered in snow.



And across the street, at the donut shop where it started.



The Native community held a prayer and dance ceremony here and where Renée Good was killed. I was awed at the grace of the Native people who have suffered so much at the hands of invaders and still came out to honor these two White people - also killed by invaders. They danced and prayed for all of our relatives, all of humanity.

I wish this was a better photo and that I could post a video of the dancing and singing.



Here are better photos:

Shove your phony outrage where the sun doesnt shine. Where was this when Obama was President???? Do you recall who got shot by Ice then???? Hypocrites.

It wasn't left wing "activists" getting shot while attention whoring for ICE back then, so the question's irrelevant. [/Leftist_Scum]

I seem to recall no outrage over the many murders and rapes caused by the same people ICE has tried to put into custody while those so called "Heros" of the left were interfering with their operations either DUmmie.

How did unfettered immigration work out for the "Native People" here after 1492? Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it.

That many deluded people is sad, but I do not think that is what Ocelot II means.

It's really sad that those two people got suckered into giving up their lives protecting illegal criminals. Walz, Frey and the rest of the anti-ICE Dems own this.

Sadly, there will probably be more.

The ironic thing to me is that they like to cal anyone who voted for Trump a cultist, but when you look at the entire situation, who looks more like a cultist? The one who voted for Trump because they thought he was a better choice than the word salad chef and Elmer "Terrible Tampon" Fudd or the ones who obediently follow their overlords' orders to hate and are willing to die to build up their overlords?
